Magdalena Ciemierkiewicz (b. 1992, Rzeszów, Poland; lives and works in Poland and the Ruhr region, Germany) is an artist whose practice engages with the Polish-Ukrainian borderland where she comes from. In 2026, she received her PhD from the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw for her dissertation Herstory in Many Voices, which focused on women’s histories, multicultural memory, and dialogue with local communities of the borderland region. Her interdisciplinary practice combines painting, textiles, video, and voice. She often works with archives and oral history. Her work has been presented at ISCP in New York in 2026, where she also completed an artistic residency in 2024, Tiger Strikes Asteroid in Los Angeles (2024), KVOST in Berlin (2024), and c/off in Munich (2025). She is a recipient of the Claus Michaletz Preis 2024, an annual award in Berlin recognizing artists whose work engages with the context of Eastern Europe.
